나만 몰랐던 나의 또 다른 이야기

손보미의 신작 장편소설 『작은 동네』가 문학과지성사에서 출간됐다. 첫 장편소설 『디어 랄프 로렌』 이후 3년 만이다. 작가는 “결정적인 대목을 말하지 않고” “말해지지 않은 덕에 더욱 강렬”(권희철)한 스토리 구성 능력과 “한국 소설의 미학적 지형을 흔드는 신선함”(이광호)을 갖춘 개성적인 감각으로 다수의 문학상(젊은작가상 대상, 한국일보문학상, 김준성문학상, 대산문학상)을 수상하며 한국 문학의 중추로 꾸준한 실력을 보여왔다.

이번 소설은 교보생명 [광화문에서 읽다 거닐다 느끼다]를 통해 2018년 11월부터 2019년 6월까지 연재되었던 작품을 묶은 것이다. 1인칭 여성 화자를 내세워 ‘나’의 현재와 내가 살았던 ‘작은 동네’에서의 과거 이야기를 오가는 방식으로 서술되었으며, 아무도 말해주지 않았고 기억에서마저 지워진 나와 엄마의 서사를 복구하는 추리극이다. 작가는 근래 「밤이 지나면」 「크리스마스의 추억」으로 이어지는 단편소설을 통해 ‘열 살 여자아이’로 그려지는 인물에 작가적 관심을 보여왔는데 이번 장편소설 역시 이러한 관심의 연장선상으로서 손보미의 근래 작품을 따라 읽어온 독자에게는 작가의 확장된 세계를 엿볼 수 있는 좋은 기회가 될 것이다.
